The fact that they purposely said "friendly rival" for the new rival makes me think that we wil for sure have a traditional one. Most likely Blue will fill the role. The game core features still look goods, so I can't wait

Currently Playing:

The rival looks basic asf. Dude can pass off as a "youngster" character. Everything else looks good. But how do you level your pokes if there isn't any wild battles? Also here's hoping walking with Pokes become a mainstay after this game. It should've been permanent after HGSS.
